Tuscan Rainbow.

The following image was taken over the village of Bibbiena in Tuscany. Galen Rowell took a very famous image of a rainbow over the Potala Palace in Lhasa, Tibet. I recall from his book "Mountains of the Middle Kingdom" that he had to drive a long way to get the rainbow in the right place. I only had to dash outside the house.

Although not in the same league as Galen's image (see http://mountainlight.com/gallery.tibet/images.html ) it still created a moment of excitement. Technical details are Nikon D80, 18-200mm (75mm), f6.3, 1/125sec, ISO200.
